Visitors to Kellogg Community College got a sweet deal on Wednesday thanks to Generation E’s Entrepreneur Camp.

Students in grades 3-8 worked on a business plan to entice customers to purchase candy in the KCC Student Center.

According to Simon Thalmann, the college's digital marketer and writer, the kids made about $200 and KCC staff members added $50. The profits will be donated to the Humane Society of South Central Michigan.

The Generation E Institute teaches kids the skills needed to succeed in business. Spring usually brings a showcase to Battle Creek, where hundreds of students share business plans, attend workshops and sell their products. For more information, go to www.genei.org.
